Santahn’s place is a real privilege in Bangkok: a tastefully decorated house, within an oasis of trees, birds, squirrels, cats, geckos and even peacocks! Wake up to the birds chirping, listen to music at the living room in the afternoon, or have a cold beer, while you chill by the hammock and wind chimes in the evening. :D
This is not your usual stay in a fancy condo in frenetic Bangkok. It’s a vintage house that Santahn is lovingly refurbishing, one little project at the time. The bed is comfortable, and the rooms is quiet, clean and simple. You’ll be sharing the bathroom with another person if one of Santahn’s friends happens to be visiting, otherwise, it’s all yours. Lola and Mali, the cats, are the most entertaining and respectful animals I've shared time with recently! If you crave technology, you’ll get AC in the room, super-fast internet and a one-burner gas stove ;-)
In terms of location, you’re only 1 km away from trendy Ari and its BTS station, and a short walk from more local restaurants and markets… And a bunch of 7-elevens. If you’re in BKK for the first time and want to see the touristic sites, this might not be your best option.
As Santahn says, he’s not much around the house, but when he is, he will make you feel at home and he will hang out with you as much as you seem to want to.
Overall, a remarkable stay. I’m coming back every time I’m in town :D
